Jalapeno Specials

"This is a recipe that my Dad has made for as long as I can remember.  Many of my family request it at special occasions.  My Dad shared it with me a few years ago and now I'm sharing it with you."

Cheesy Goodness!
Guacamole:
5 very-ripe avocados, sliced, then diced into very small chunks, do not mash
1/2 of a sweet onion, like Vidalia, diced
2 small tomatoes, diced
1/4 of a jar of jalapeno peppers, minced
2 heaping Tbsp. mayonnaise
1 tsp. garlic powder
chili powder, to taste
salt and pepper, to taste
2 Tbsp. jalapeno juice from jar of jalapeno peppers
Juice from 1/2 of a lemon

Combine all ingredients. 

NOTE:  As you stir ingredients together, avocado will become creamy.

Additional Ingredients:
Tortilla chips
Shredded cheddar cheese

To Assemble Jalapeno Specials:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Spoon about 1 Tbsp. of guacamole mixture onto each tortilla chip.  Sprinkle with cheese.  Place on cookie sheet.  Bake until heated through and cheese is melted.
